S'pose that thing would toss a Guild as far as an Ovation?

That's a good question. I would imagine that an Ovation is a bit more aerodynamic and certainly has a lot more weight to it. But a Guild, especially a jumbo, could take advantage of the winds and perhaps eek out a few extra meters. On the flip side I would guess that the Guild would be a bit more difficult to reassemble afterwards.

Just imagine the looks of sheer horror if Jeff rolled up to the Guild tour with that in tow.

Particularly if he had his device in tow.

With or without... just the aura of carbon fiber on him would send them running.

The really cool Guild coaster set that they gave us at the tour had the top of the container made from lyracord.

Guild Rep: Good morning sir how can I help you.

Jeff: I am here to run a scientific experiment on your guitars. I want to run test involving size, shape, acoustic properties etc.

Guild Rep: most certainly. Anything in the name of science. I would be very happy to help.

Jeff: Okay then the first experiment involves the sustain of your guitars.

Guild Rep: any particular model?

Jeff: No preference. I will make note of the model in my report.

Guild Rep: Okay then I'll just grab the nearest one.(Goes back in the factory)

Jeff: (Drives Trebuchet up to the service entrance)

Guild Rep:(Hands Jeff a guitar) I don't understand.

Jeff: I'm going to check the sustain of this model. It's okay I'm a professional

Guild Rep: Uh okay then.

Jeff: I'm going to measure how much damage the guitar will sustain when I load my trebuchet with 150 pounds.
